    Lightbulb Anyone shop for groceries or household goods on-line at Walmart.com?

    I was browsing online at Walmart.com, not "Walmart To Go" which is not available in my area, Just the regular website, and found that you can get great prices on groceries On-line and have them shipped free. They have value bundles and deals which you will not find in the stores.

    This is great for me as I hate physically going shopping, I find no enjoyment in it. Too many people and I always overspend and end up with a bunch of crap I don't need. Of course I would still have to stop to get milk, meat (Which I do not eat a lot of anyway) and cheese probably once a month. But this looks like a great way to save money without the hassle of going out. I wonder if everything is shipped out together in the same box? It would be crazy to get like 20 different small packages..lol Has anyone tried this before?

    The prices seem to be the same as in the actual stores not like the other online grocery stores with inflated prices. I think it would stop me from buying additional items I do not really need. I like to buy paper towels and toilet paper in bulk from Amazon. They give you a discount for auto delivery, so I won't be buying these items online through Walmart unless I can get a better price. But i'm going to try buying groceries for a few months and see how it goes. Has anyone tried buying groceries on-line through Walmart?

    Have not looked into it. I will look at the site just to check it out and see if there is anything worth buying that way.

    I have just found this vegetable stand I used to go to now carries meat at really good prices, go figure. I have bought a few items and they have been good so far.

    Like you said you can't buy meat online anyway, the last few times I have bought chicken at WM I was not impressed at all, in fact returned two large pkgs they smelt funny and it was no where near the expire date.

    I have a few things that I get regularly at Aldi and bogo's at the pricy grocery store nearest my house with coupons of course. Actually all the stores I go to are all within a two mile radius.

    If the deals were good enough I would consider on-line shopping. If the shipping is free.

    My wife buys Ol Roy munchie bones for the dogs on a regular basis but can only get 1 or 2 every time she goes in the store! So she was excited when she found out she can get 10 at a time shipped free!

    Thanks for the info...........will have to check it out.

    I don't buy their meat, and seldom buy their produce but will look at some of the other prices........nice if I can get them cheaper.
